RM-10 Chemistry
Unlike conventional wastewater treatment systems that require multiple chemical additions throughout the process, Baldwin RM-10® simplifies treatment with a single application. This industrial wastewater system is specifically engineered to address the challenges of treating difficult wastewater, offering a more streamlined and efficient approach.
Baldwin’s product line includes a range of clay-based powder chemicals that effectively remove emulsified oils, heavy metals, phosphates, and suspended solids from wastewater using a one-tank, one-chemical process. RM-10® chemicals are carefully formulated from a blend of minerals, inorganic and organic acids, bases, and polymers, providing a powerful and precise treatment solution.
Features and Benefits
Safe & Simple
RM-10® chemistry is distinguished by its safety and simplicity, requiring only one non-toxic chemical compared to the multiple chemicals needed in traditional systems. This reduces chemical handling and storage requirements, enhancing workplace safety and operational efficiency.
Sludge Disposal
RM-10® produces non-leachable sludge through its micro-encapsulation process, generally allowing for direct disposal in non-hazardous landfills. The clay-based formulation also minimises sludge volume by retaining no chemically bound water, simplifying disposal and reducing environmental impact.
Relevant Applications
RM-10® chemistry is highly effective in a variety of industrial wastewater treatment applications. In paint manufacturing, it efficiently handles wash waters contaminated with pigments and suspended solids. For oily water treatment, it effectively removes emulsified oils and other contaminants. The chemistry is also advantageous in cardboard corrugators, where it treats ink and glue water, as well as in vibratory deburring and die-casting processes, where it manages wastewater containing metal particles and residues.
Additionally, RM-10® is well-suited for treating metalworking coolants and plating solutions, where it removes oils, heavy metals, and other impurities. It also excels in equipment washdown and parts washing, ensuring that industrial equipment and components remain clean and free of contaminants. Moreover, RM-10® is effective in phosphate removal, addressing environmental regulations and water quality concerns. Its versatility across these applications underscores its role as a comprehensive solution in industrial wastewater treatment.
